This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled powerpc/pseries/mobility: handle premature return from H_JOIN to the 5.11-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: powerpc-pseries-mobility-handle-premature-return-fro.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.11 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 38e5a8a88e001162663409153e6b0d5024cdd2d2 Author: Nathan Lynch <nathanl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Mar 15 03:00:45 2021 -0500 powerpc/pseries/mobility: handle premature return from H_JOIN [ Upstream commit 274cb1ca2e7ce02cab56f5f4c61a74aeb566f931 ] The pseries join/suspend sequence in its current form was written with the assumption that it was the only user of H_PROD and that it needn't handle spurious successful returns from H_JOIN. That's wrong; powerpc's paravirt spinlock code uses H_PROD, and CPUs entering do_join() can be woken prematurely from H_JOIN with a status of H_SUCCESS as a result. This causes all CPUs to exit the sequence early, preventing suspend from occurring at all. Add a 'done' boolean flag to the pseries_suspend_info struct, and have the waking thread set it before waking the other threads. Threads which receive H_SUCCESS from H_JOIN retry if the 'done' flag is still unset.
